Wednesday, October 29: Cool, Tired, & Yoga

This morning I got up after a lot better sleep, and more of it. Thing is I was still really drowsy. I got the Mike’s around 9 AM and shortly thereafter his 

physical therapist Tony came to help him put with some neck exercises. We did not even attempt to get him to walk up and down since his neck 

is really sore. He was kind of drowsy from the oxy cause he’s doing his exercises. His eyes would just close. Well, I’m not that tired but I’m pretty tired and feeling a little un motivated. Anyhow, after that, 

Mike had his therapy at 11 so I went to the good karma cafĂ© and sat there for almost 2 hours. Just drinking coffee and spacing out and looking at the Internet and TikTok videos and threads with all it. Trump 

bullshit. It’s now 1:59 PM ready to go to my 2 o’clock appointment. That appointment went well. We talked about my immediate future and getting older and all that stuff. I was just in the mood to talk 

about it because I’m turning 64 next week a week from today that is. We also talked about how good working with Mike is good for me. Whether I should consider other options.I then talked to 

my friend Natalie, whose husband is in the hospital with diverticulitis and she told me he has to be home for a month getting fed intravenously while he 

recovers. That sounds really awful. It’s our 325. I’m eating a very late lunch. Anyhow, I just read that Pierre Robert the old WMMR DJ died today he was 70 years old. He was found in his home dead. So it going to 

be a lot of write ups about him and how wonderful he was. I’m guessing it’s a heart attack, but who knows they have they all have

handlers so we may never know. I shared this with the Crowe list and John sent me this article that you fall off a cliff at Age 75. another Mike news Mike’s phones stopped working cause it battery died and then





 he tried to charge it up and it looks like it’s completely failed and he dropped his mouse and something broke off and now he doesn’t have the mouse for his computer. 



Tomorrow’s gonna be a busy day. Anyhow, I got the Mary took a quick nap and then we went to Dan’s 5:30 PM Hot Yoga class and then went straight to Yin. Dance class was quietly intense. There was a couple


new people there and I was in my usual spot in the back row near the door. I barely had time to get changed for yin, but I made it to Yin and some of the poses were difficult. 



Mary and I decided to order Indian and. We then watched Law and order couple Colbert shows and watched the Dodgers lose the Blue Jays six – one to take a 3–2 lead in the World Series. The Blue Jays pitcher who’s from Philadelphia suburbs struck out 12 dodger batters! Good stuff well day is over and tomorrow it’s supposed to rain all day.

Friday, October 10: 43° to Start. Ultrasound & Rehab.

woke up this morning till a 43° morning in which I had to leave Mary’s before 8 o’clock to get the Mike’s early so then I can take Uber to get to my ultrasound appointment on Walnut Street. Last night

was a complete disaster in the Philly sports world eagles got completely creamed by the Giants of all teams in the Phillies fumbled Away game four and lost in the Dodgers. That’s kind of depressing. 

Anyway, both Mary and I decided there’s no yoga today One we need a break and two I have my rehab appointment at 2:30 PM today. Glad that my normal appointments aren’t that late. Well, I went to 

my ultrasound appointment the Technician I saw was very efficient and did the procedure very quickly I thought. That took about oh I’d say a half hour 40 minutes tops. Then I sat there for 20 to 25 minutes 

waiting for the radiologist to show up. I then went out in the hallway, got somebody and she came in well dressed with two really young people. One was a doctor and one was a fellow who has a year and a 

half left. he looks so young. My mind was blown the radiologist lady said everything look good. The muscles look good etc. and they seemed very interested about my syndrome. 

It was very pleasant. I then came back to Mike’s and Mel it out for a while and finished off my coffee. I did wake up eventually, but I’m feeling definitely a little tired today. I met up with Pat for a little advanced rent

for January. So I’m paid for till February. We talked for a bit and then I went back to Mike’s and Nicole. The nurse came over and asked Mike a bunch of questions and that one pretty well. She’s a real advocate

or Mike she’s very good. Anyhow, Mike got a ride for his Tuesday appointment for next week. Mike and I also scheduled our vaccine appointment on Monday. I put 10 AM. He put 11:15 AM. 

We’re going try to both get them done at the same time on Monday the 13th. All right, it’s 2:27 PM. I’m in the waiting room here at the McGee rehab. 

The waiting room is a little full but it’s also extremely small. I almost didn’t get a seat. I am really tired today. Well, I went to Rehab and saw someone subbing because I’m coming in on an odd day. 

We took apart my machine and she programmed it for me according to the instructions I did some of the exercises. They weren’t too bad, but I was tired and I think my muscles were tired too. 

Anyhow, after the therapy I went to corner of Tasker and Columbus Avenue and miss the 64 bus because it doesn’t stop at Dickinson and decided

to take the 7️⃣ bus. The seven bus will take me to directly close to Mary’s house, but it is a an Odyssey through South Philly. So I get to see parts of Philly. I 

don’t go go to that often. And it is quite an honest you go down plums Boulevard then you go to Oregon Avenue and then you go up 22nd. It’s now 4:02 PM at the corner of 22nd Ellsworth Street. I’m looking forward 

to just maybe getting a bite to eat and lying down I am very very tired. Glad I canceled out Yoga that made a lot of sense. Once you got to Mary’s around 4:30 PM, I just crashed both of 

us crashed till about 7:38 PM in just slide around and order some Indian food. It was definitely needed. Holy fuck after running around watching our teams lose it was good. It’s just zoned out and sleep.


Tomorrow we have 9 o’clock Yoga. This evening we watched the baseball bloopers a little bit of Jimmy Kimmel and other things that weren’t serious just to give us ourselves a mental break. It was nice.
